Hi Francesco,
we are currently working on 1.1.X. I guess the project we are working on will
end up in a two or three of months.
Do you know (or can give us a forecast) about 1.2.0 release date?
Uh, hard guess: IMO we are not even at 50% of 1.2.0 features.
Anyway, as reported in the roadmap, I would say that it should see the
light in Q1 2013.
Naturally, there is always chance to speed up by providing some help ;-)
Regards.

Oggetto: Re: Java Client API for Apache Syncope and Apache Syncope 1.1.x

Hi,
I've just read the Francesco blog post about "Java REST client library for Apache
Syncope 1.2.0" [1].
I think it's a great feature that can simplify integration of external Java
applications with Syncope core.
Thanks Denis :-)
As can I understand, it's a new Java API Client Library that rely on Java REST
API refactor [2] already introduced in 1.1.X version.
I'm wondering if it can be used with Apache Syncope 1.1.X or only with Apache
Syncope releases >= 1.2.0.
Hum, this is a bit more complicated.
In Syncope 1.1.X, both Spring MVC and CXF are available, hence there are two
different ways to construct client code (see this project of mine [3] to get an
idea) that will interact with two different RESTful interfaces.
One can think to backport SyncopeClient from 1.2.X and only provide support for
CXF services; unfortunately there are some unfinished aspects with CXF in 1.1.X
that were completed in 1.2.X (SYNCOPE-285 and related, for example) that would
result in a somehow limited SyncopeClient capabilities.
Again, at least part of such "incompleteness" can be backported as well but the
whole task can become quite large.
Personally, I have not enough spare cycles to dedicate to this, but I am
available to help anyone else willing to step in.
Regards.
